I love recipes were the dishes can stay out and not get spoiled.  This is one of those recipes that’s great for potlucks or picnics.

Now that summer is in full swing, we are going to picnics, BBQs and parties almost every weekend. This is one of my favorite salads to bring since it can be a side dish or a full meal.

Need a change from boring old macaroni salad? Try this Pesto Pasta Salad Recipe. Great for pot lucks or BBQ’s and can be made up to 2 days ahead.

Every time I go there, I get this pasta salad and burn my mouth but just love it. I recreated the recipe and lightened up on the mayo and spice (to not burn my mouth).

Savory, not sweet, is what makes this macaroni salad stand out. Most grocery store macaroni salads are so sweet you might as well have them for dessert.
